Fra i Monti is a young, exciting winery, founded in 2018, run by partners Rocco and Benedetto Leone. They are located in Terelle, in the province of Frosinone, in Lazio, about 110km southeast of Rome. Rocco and Benedetto also run a local, natural wine shop. They started this project after coming to understand the profound importance of the land, and how wine is mostly made in the vineyard and not the cellar, and that natural wine (and food) is better for ones health. They acquired a picturesque old vineyard, surrounded by chestnut trees, containing old vines of the native grapes like Maturano and Fiano, and some Semillon and Merlot, brought to Lazio by Napoleonic soldiers. Soils are clay and silt, with a high concentration of calcium. Viticulture is completely organic, and in the cellar fermentations are spontaneous, with no additives, and white wines are aged in amphorae.
